Trump still leads as Rubio and Fiorina rise

Donald Trump again leads the Republican primary field – but his lead has dwindled since before the second debate, while Marco Rubio has seen a significant boost in support.

Although businessman Donald Trump continues to lead the GOP field when it comes to presidential preference of those registered voters who think of themselves as Republican, he is by no means the best-liked contender for Republicans for those potential voters. At least five other candidates in the latest Economist/YouGov Poll are seen more favorably by Republicans than Trump. Trump’s lead has somewhat diminished in recent weeks, though he remains in first place when second choice mentions are added to first choice preferences...(continued)

No, I coordinate with my Schnauzer and my Jack Chi (half Jack Russell, half Chihuahua) but nobody on FR.

You'd be better served letting them make the posts instead of the drivel you serve up.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Yeah, that’s why literally thousands of people here have thanked me for my threads and posts over the years. LOL

[datura]

I’m one of those. Thank you.

Yet another backhanded lame stream article about Trump and yet his haters continue to claim the press “corpse” ADORE him.

I’m seeing a lot of people who signed up many years ago who I don’t recognize. You?

Athena and Apollo.

Well, maybe you can explain why Cruz is just a turd in the bowl in the polls compared to several other candidates.

Wonderful names!

2ndD.V. is a very prolific poster of threads. He starts thread on various subjects, with various sources.

The fact you find yourself on Trump threads started by 2DV more likely indicates you seem to be drawn to Trump Threads.

The fact that we have two good thread starters now makes the likelihood of you encountering one of their threads very high.

Unless you avoided clicking on Trump threads.....

Attacking other people's candidates won't help your boy. A lot of people seem to think that Cruz and Trump have an arrangement of some kind.

Do you recognize me?

Yes.

When it comes to polls, most threads aren't worth a click. Otherwise, many threads have headlines (from the media) which are blatantly biased or just plain wrong.

Right now, Trump is his own worst enemy and if he were to lose, he'd only have himself to blame.

Beyond Trump, our choices are Carson (a decent guy), Cruz (likely would not win a general election) and the rest of tired old junk we've been voting for for years.

In nerd speak, that's GG, RIP America.

Attacking other people's candidates

I like Cruz and think he would do great as President. The fact that he's so low in the polls is very troubling.

He spends his time talking about what's wrong with this country which people, at least those that would be needed to vote for him, don't want to hear.

Sadly, people want to hear the simpler message of "Make America Great Again" and speaking plainly about issues like immigration.

This election is frankly pretty damn scary. We've got a guy in Trump that could shoot himself in the foot at any moment, is an outsider, and is saying what people want to hear.

On the other hand, we have a bunch of retreads that would get easily whipped by a Democrat.

Cruz better figure out how to get some charisma and be likeable or he's done.

Do you know what his poll numbers were at this point in his senate race?
